Psalms 41:1-6 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

1. How blessed is he who considers the helpless; The Lord will deliver him in a day of trouble.

2. The Lord will protect him and keep him alive, And he shall be called blessed upon the earth; And do not give him over to the desire of his enemies.

3. The Lord will sustain him upon his sickbed; In his illness, You restore him to health.

4. As for me, I said, "O Lord, be gracious to me; Heal my soul, for I have sinned against You."

5. My enemies speak evil against me, "When will he die, and his name perish?"

6. And when he comes to see me, he speaks falsehood; His heart gathers wickedness to itself; When he goes outside, he tells it.
